Sylvester Stallone fans have waited for years to see Sly return to the role that he made famous! Believe me, it will be worth the wait!

Special birthday poem for Sly
July 6, 2006
As all know you’re as young as you feel
So turning ’60’ for you shouldn’t be a big deal
You’re not one to be called over the hill
‘Cause you’re healthy and good looking still
For some another candle on the cake might be the pits
But not for Stallone who’s physically fit
Happy Birthday to you, Sly, a shining star
From where you started you’ve truly come far
You were born the same day as Bush, our President
For all you’ve achieved your life’s no less relevant
You founded health products called Instone
Helping persons to keep like you in tone
Immortalized as Rocky, Rambo, but best as Sly
A most down to earth warm-hearted guy
To many you’ve been inspirational
For acting and writing sensational
You’ll never know how many hearts you’ve touched
Or by how many you’re cared about so much
Wishing for you, Sly, a lifetime of blessed days
And on July 6 a very special birthday

A dream was the start of the First
Rocky Movie after a prayer by
S.S…. God told him to star in
the movie, as Rocky and the movie will make you a supper star which it did do that. Out of 50 movies the only one S.S. got academies and golden glodes for that first movie Rocky. S.S. wrote the movie in 3 1/2 days. And finished movie in 30 days
or 3 months not sure on that part??
Now 30 yrs. later: Rocky 6…What
moral lesson or lessons in this movie will be told,
and will this one be honored
as away to thank the Lord for what
He has given you, Amen??. Joanne
Sly, you are a true hero for the 21st century. You beat all the odds and won, and you are an inspiration to many generations.
Congratulations and many successes in health, life and business.
Mark C.
SLY,

Hi,Rocky Balboa is back! Doesn´t matter older,doesn´t matter nobody believe in him,doesn´t matter it will be hurt him. He is simply back! And if he feel pain,never mind,it means,that he is still alive,not dead yet! I believe in him.Thank you Sylvester! And happy birthday,young man!!! Marek,Czech republik
I’ve waiting so long for Sly to make a comeback…Its so great seeing him returning to rocky and the best part is that he did it for his fans becuase of the unsatisfying ending to rocky 5
